He Was Waiting for the Ferry

While waiting myself for the ferry across the river Neckar in Ladenburg I watched this young grey heron walking up and down the bank, intently watching the ferry on the other side of the river, unperturbed by the cars and people waiting with him. He flew off before the ferry landed, though.

The Bridges of the Lower Neckar

The bridge from Ladenburg to Neckarhausen, looking towards Mannheim.
The same bridge looking in the opposite direction, towards Heidelberg.
Closer to the confluence with the Rhein this bridge is this railway bridge spanning two arms of the Neckar and the island in between.
Lock on the River Neckar at Heidelberg with a pedestrian bridge.

Less than 300 metres downstream is the Old Bridge crossing the Neckar and leading to the white twin towers of the Heidelberg town gate.
